Last week, DiS headed to east London to catch the first-ever gig by new capital city rockers Tropics. Comprised of members past and present of Bullet Union (singer Jodie, pictured main), Navajo Code, An Emergency and RAT:ATT:AGG, we were obviously quite excited.

"A skin-tight set of dischordantly melodic alt-punk" is how our in-attendance reviewer puts it HERE, and below you can check out some exclusive shots of the band, taken by acclaimed photographer Owen Richards. Find his own website HERE. Thanks Owen!
